I am stepping on the ground of Point Pleasant New Jersey!! Yes I'm finally here!! SInce yesterday night after we arrived, have been tryin tab other's line haa. This is how everything went yesterday:

Me and Charlotte took the 13 hours flight from Korea to JFK Airport in New York. It was quite messy, the sky train instructions was not as fool proof as those in Spore. Luckily we still managed to get to correct trains and stuff. In the end we decided to take the subway instead of the train as it's cheaper. It was quite an overwhelming experience. hahaa i think we are to used to Spore.. The safest and cleanest country. The subway was quite some ride haa..everybody looks like thugs! haha its like everyone looks exactly like the bad guys in Hollywood movies. There's so many blacks here too. hahha it's not that I'm racist, but they really look scary!

Then we changed train at Penn Station to Point Pleasant Station, where we are supposed to call the manager and ask her to fetch us. But she's really punctal. As in to knock off! haha exactly at pm she will disappear from the office. We had no more coins to make call and it was so cold !! I didnt bring enough jackets too! Thank god Char lent me her scarf. Anyway we spent like 40 mins roaming around, asking for directions and phone. In the end we decided to follow an old man's direction. But it was bloody far! Tolling our heavy luggage along the road is no joke man.. damn tiring

Thank god we met a really nice family man in the petrol kiosk. He gave us a ride to Jenkinsons where are supposed to work. The old man gave us the long way! sianz.. if not we would have reached long ago. Thanks god again there's still people in the shops and we managed to get someoen who stayed in the house too. So we just followed him back to the house. Yeah, dont have to sleep in the streets!! haha..
The house is shared by like 20 people already! This is madness! haha but fun.. there's mainly Sporeans and Bulgarians.
Opps gotta go and look for the manager.. and buy some groceries!
